So when asked by Stern if he was the mastermind behind the “Sorry” singer’s nude paparazzi pics -- Bieber was caught both last year and then again last month in Hawaii -- Usher was able to unequivocally answer that it wasn't.

"He does have a brain of his own," Usher explained. "What he chose to do with his penis is his prerogative."

“He’s like a child to me so I don’t necessarily feel like his business. I feel like I’m talking to someone who has hardships,” Usher said. “Like, if your child ever has difficulties...anyone listening understands that nobody’s perfect.”
